Catch me if you can

chapter 56

Martina

*A short, formally dressed woman with blonde hair was standing in front of me sadly. She was desperate and apparently Jorge had something to do with it.*

M: Yeah, yeah he is. Come in

??: Thank you

*She walked in, her heels making a click everytime she made a step straight to the living room*

M: Uhm, sit down, I will make some drinks. Do you want a lemonade? Or something stronger?

??: Water is fine, I don't drink sweet but thank you.

*I smiled at her and turned to the kitchen. Pche, doesn't drink sweet. Who the hell in this world doesn't drink lemonade? I heard the door open in the bathroom and Jorge coming out. But before I warned him, he arrived at the living room.*

J: Oh. Hi Emma

E: Hello Jorge, I hope I'm not interrupting you

J: What brings you here?

E: I came here to talk

J: If it's because of what I have done to you, I am sorry. But you are fine, right?

*He had done what? What happened between him and Emma?*

E: Uh... I...

*She started but didn't finish for some reason. Of course. It's between them.*

M: Your water

E: Thank you

M: You'll have something Jorge?

J: Huh? No no, thank you.

*There I stood awkwardly...*

J: So, Tini, this is Emma, my friend. Emma, this is Tini

E: Nice to meet you

M: You too

J: Me and Emma haven't met since college and she stopped by on her way to... the airport

E: I actu-

J: She is going to Madrid

*He said and Emma immediately agreed*

E: Yeah, I have work there

J: Sit down Tini, Emma won't bite you

...

Jorge

J: Oh no, I guess Emma will have to go now, right?

E: Huh?

J: Your flight to Madrid

E: Oh, yeah yeah. It was very nice to meet you Tini and... very nice seeing you again Jorge

J: I will accompany you down

E: Thank you

*We stood up quickly and left the apartement.*

J: Why did you come?

E: I wanted to talk about-

J: You have an idea how much I've just lied to her?

E: Jorge found a girlfriend, huh?!

J: Uh, no, she is not-

E: How would you feel if someone attacked her now!

J: You said you forgive me!

E: Right. I am cool. Cool.

*She took a deep breath and looked at me sadly*

E: How is it going with Nicolas?

J: I don't know. I haven't seen him since you two split up.

E: He told you?

J: Yes. He quit his job after you broke up

E: I kinda...

J: What is it?

E: I need him back
